Date: Saturday, November 8, 2025
Celebrate the recent harvest of Texas pecans and pumpkins by baking them into delicious pies! And what would a pie be without a fork-tender mouth-watering crust holding it together? In this class you will learn a winner of a pie crust recipe using a custom blend of Barton Springs Mill’s stone ground flours that especially highlight autumn spice flavors. Then, together we’ll fill our crusts to make pumpkin pie using freshly roasted + locally grown pumpkins, and chocolate pecan pie using freshly-harvested Texas pecans.
Whether you’re a pie-making expert searching for your next favorite crust recipe, or a beginner just learning the basics, this class is sure to teach you something new, delicious, and seasonal just in time for the holiday baking season.
